A high school student athlete, Drew Farney plays quarterback at Hyde Academy in Maine. Outside his academic and athletic responsibilities, Drew Farney has gained experience working with veterans through the Wounded Warriors Project.
Providing critical support and resources for wounded veterans throughout the United States, Wounded Warriors offers a number of programs for individuals living with post-traumatic stress disorder, traumatic brain injury, and combat stress. The organization’s Combat Stress Recovery Program recognizes the effects of combat on mental health and addresses such issues through various rehabilitation services.
To foster connection and healing through physical challenges, veterans can participate in Project Odyssey (an outdoor retreat) or a 5-day Couples Project Odyssey retreat. Held in locations around the country, both programs promote recovery and help rebuild trust in relationships through adventurous outdoor activities such as rock climbing, white water rafting, and horseback riding. For more information about how Project Odyssey retreats draw on the healing power of nature, visit www.woundedwarriors.org.
